Herman Schmerman

Thursday, June 17, 2004

OK. Hello.

1. First Question: Why Herman Schmerman? It's a crazy modern ballet (yes, ballet) about confused identity and a war between the sexes. Oh, the relevance. Swoon at my astonishing grasp of cultural influences. Marvel at my cross-references. Yes, this is another one of those stream-of-consciousness-blog-for-the-sake-of-me-not-for-your-fucking-entertainment-blogs. But maybe you might quite like it.

2. It's "please stand up" for those times when I'm on the London Underground and an old woman gets on and everyone stares at their newspapers or into their disfigured reflections or just ELSEWHERE and everyone thinks 'if only someone would stand up' and few really do any more, quite frankly.
